• 0:01
  Speaker 1: I'm fortant isn't to have a bounce back game this week.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Man, it just gave me heads up that might be us.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: I'm just kidding.
• 0:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean every week you want to you want
• 0:12
  Speaker 3: to play your best, especially after the performance from our offense,
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: you know last week or Sunday. Uh, definitely looking to
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: to play better than that. So, you know, I think
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: the emphasis every week is to try to get better,
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: but especially after a game like that, you definitely want
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: to get back on track and then play.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: Well, what's the third downs?
• 0:29
  Speaker 4: I mean last year, you guys were pretty efficient.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: This year obviously not out to.
• 0:33
  Speaker 5: A good start so far.
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, just not executing. I think that's I mean, that's
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: a broad term, but that's what I feel like. Really
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: anything comes down to as far as you know, critical situations,
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: whether it's red zone or third down or really anything.
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: I think it's just a lack of execution, you know,
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: at different spots at different times, and we just all
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: have to we all have to do better at executing
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: and you know, being ready for any look that could
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: that could show up. And that's on us just of communicating,
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: like when we're on the field, we all got to
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: communicate better.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: And we're getting better.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: There's things that we've improved on, for sure, but we
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: got to be better on third down in red zone.
• 1:08
  Speaker 5: Doug said last week he didn't think that practice was
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: at the level that it needed to be. Was that
• 1:13
  Speaker 5: something you noticed during the practice last week?
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: And how do you, I guess, make sure that the
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: intensity is there.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: When you guys are out on the field.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's been addressed and we talked about it.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: We even talked about last week and you know, tried
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: to finish the week strong.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: But I agree, you know, we didn't.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: I think we were flying around quite as good as
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: we were, you know, maybe the week before. And I
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: think that's the adjustment when you get in the season
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: and when you play these these long, physical games. You know,
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: even take like the Colts game in the first game
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: that was a physical, tough four quarter game. I mean,
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: you just got to get used to bouncing back and
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: being ready to go on Wednesday Thursday for practice because
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: you got to get the game plan in, you got
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: to get those reps to feel good about it. And
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: you know, I don't think we did a great job
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: necessarily last week of doing that, especially on Wednesday. So
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: that's the empt this week. The guys are ready to go.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: I think we're really locked in.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Guys are ready. We got to bring some energy and
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: get back on track.
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: Your post game remarks on Sunday, you you brought up
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: the Houston game last year's sort of a reference to
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: how poorly the offense executed in this particular game. Did
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: the stuff like that resonate.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: With players the following year in terms of, you know,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: in in giving any motivation whatsoever, or is it just
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: sort of an a side that really doesn't matter.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: I think you you can use it a little bit,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: for sure.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: I don't think we played really our best either game
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: against these guys. Offensively anyways, Our defense played great both
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: weeks last year against them, but I know offensively we didn't.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: And just going back, you know, I think me and
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: Josh were talking about earlier in the week. He's only
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: myself too, but he's been here long, Josh Allen, He's
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: only beat him once in his career, so that we
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: know that too. And this team has been a team
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: that you know, we haven't had much success with. So
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: you know, of course, it's a new season, and it's
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: a new it's a new year.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Different, the teams.
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: Look different all that, but you know, you can use
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: definitely some of that as motivation and we should be
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: coming out ready to play.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: What have you seen on tape from from their defense?
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Obviously their their offenses had some struggles, but defensively, what
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: what do you see particularly from from Henderson, who's obviously
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: seems to be guy that's gonna live up to where
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: he was paid.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a great player.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: And you look at you know, San Francisco and kind
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: of where where coach Ryan's came from. I mean, that's
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: what he's trying to do in Houston, and that scheme
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: is kind of carrying over. And it all starts with
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: the guys up front, and they got a good group
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: up front that really make it go. And then the
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: linebackers they fly around. We've played Denzel, you know, last
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: year when he was with Vegas and now he's with
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: the Texans, and you got some young guys in there
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: too that are playing good. And then the back end,
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: obviously they've had some injuries early on, but they've been
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: flying around playing great. I know Petrie is a guy
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: that stuck out to us a lot last year when
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: we played against him and so we'll see if he's
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: you know, healthy to go this week. But just guys
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: that are flying around, they're they're well coached, you know,
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: they're still they're still getting their system going, and guys
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: all you know, in the right spots, but.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: They play really hard.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: The group up front gets after the quarterback.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: You know, they're really explosive.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: Those two edge guys are really good players, so just
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: got to be you know, it's it's like anyway, there's
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: great players all over the field, but you can see
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: what they're trying to do there and they're and they're
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: doing a good job the first two weeks. And I
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: think their defense is playing playing pretty well and flying
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: around a moment.
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: I guess the top dam if any breakers should after
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: that game getting a little bit of advice older four,
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: I guess older quarterbacks, You guys feel like a responsibility
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: to kind of just give a little nugget to the
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: younger guys and rookies when they come in the you
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: know what I mean.
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, not necessarily, of course, if you have something
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: to say, you'd love to help any way you can.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: But I think there's just a mutual respect between quarterbacks.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: You know, when when you're playing, and that's that's something
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: I noticed pretty early on as a rookie. And you always,
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: you know, see the other guy after the game and
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: shake their hand win or lose, and same way with
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: other guys in the team too, but especially the quarterback,
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: and you just show your respect and something you always do.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: So if you ever have anything to say, like, guys
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: of that to me when I was a rookie and
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: even last year some and now just kind of doing
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: the same thing, if there is something that I feel
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: like maybe need to s or you know, whatever it is,
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: but I think it's just that kind of mutual respect
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: for one another or there's.
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: Something stick with you the quarterbacks till years and rookie year.
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: Trying to think back on it now, you know, nothing
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: in particular, there was a lot of we had a
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: lot of rough games in a rookie year, so I
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: think just guys talking to me. I remember Matt Stafford today,
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: just hang in there. You know it's gonna be all right,
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: So it's gonna get better. And Joe Burrow said the
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: same thing to me because obviously, you know he had
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: a rougher rookie year, got hurt and then bounce back
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: and had it ended up having a great second year.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: That was I think the fourth game of the year,
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: so we didn't know that was gonna happen yet. But
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: you know, he kind of said the same thing to
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: me after the games, just encouraging, you know, whatever it is,
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: try to help, try to help those guys.
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: I get I'll lost to bother you, but picking back
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: to Denver game in London and then Detroit game, it
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: seemed like there was a little extra picked off about
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: those games.
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: And you guys bounce back, well kind of got the
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: same deal of this past Sunday.
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: You guys were a little bothered by that one a
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: little bit more. How long did that resonate?
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: How much do you expect to bounce back because of that?
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: I think it sticks with you for I mean, shoot,
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: I mean all the way till today. I mean today
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: you got to you got to turn the page and
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: you got to move on. And of course, preparation wise,
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: I've already done that, you know, Monday, after we watch
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: the tape, you move on to your preparation for the
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: next opponent. But that still bothers you, and you want
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: to you want to bounce back. You want to have
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: a great day of practice today. You want to kind
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: of get that feeling out of your system obviously when
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: you don't execute and you don't play well, but just
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: about channeling that in the right direction to putting together
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: a great plan and preparing for this game because that
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: game's over.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: Can't go back and change it. We're one on one.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: That's where we're at, and.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: We got to be able to move on and figure
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: out how can we get better? And I know we
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: got the guys that do it and we're going to
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: so yeah, I mean you obviously that's the one thing
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: about this game. You know, it's different than basketball and baseball,
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: where you play maybe a few times in a week,
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: got to wait another week to go get that feeling.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Out of your system.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: So you know, we're putting all of our our efforts
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: and focus into huge but definitely we're thinking about how
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: we felt in that locker room and how we didn't
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: perform like we know we can.
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: We expect to see the old line and practice this
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: week and your compence level and come bout and back who.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: Ahead for I know those guys are gonna We had
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: some great meetings this morning, like we always do on Wednesdays,
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: and some of our protection stuff, and these guys are
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: gonna be just fine, not worried about it.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: You know, it's all of us.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: It's it's it's all of us playing together and communicating.
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: And you know, I don't think any any player on
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: offense played anywhere close to their best game on Sunday,
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: So it's not just those guys. We all got to
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: be better and we will be. And I think we
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: have the group that recognizes that there's nobody that thinks
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: that they played great on Sunday and thinks that they're
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: above any anyone else.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: So we understand where we're at.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: And I got a lot of confidence in those guys,
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: and we'll put together a great plan and be prepared,
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: and it starts today and they're gonna fly around.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: We'll have a great practice. Thanks appreciate you.
